King of Glory: Catch All the Female Heroes

Chapter 31: Shield Mountain

"Uncle, he looks so weird. I cooked a table full of food, but he didn't come to eat. Why did he keep circling around my stove? It's as if my stove is a treasure."

"Are you really sure that he is from Jixia College?"

Su Lie ate beef in big mouthfuls while saying without raising his head, "It's hard to say whether he is from Jixia Academy. But he is the fiancé of Jialuo, the young master of Qianku City. Mulan has confirmed this."

Hua Mulan turned her head and looked at Zhang Cheng. While drinking her porridge, she whispered, "Zhang Cheng just said that the demons are likely to cooperate with humans this time. Which force do you think is most likely to cooperate with the demons?"

"We can use the process of elimination. First, it can't be the horse bandits. Horse bandits don't have the guts. Secondly, it can't be those reckless people in the Northern Wasteland. They don't have such brains. The only one I can think of is Yucheng."

At this point, Su Lie's movement of picking up the beef froze slightly.

"More than half a month ago, Yucheng's second prince Sheng negotiated with me to open the market. Since then, caravans from Yucheng have been entering the Great Wall every evening. If the force cooperating with the demons is Yucheng, then there must be something wrong with Yucheng's caravans."

When Kai and Hua Mulan heard Su Lie's words, they both put down their chopsticks involuntarily.

Kai even volunteered to whisper to Su Lie, "I will tell the soldiers to conduct a thorough search of the caravan in Yucheng."

"Well, this is just my suspicion. Before we come up with substantial evidence, we should conduct the search as covertly as possible. Firstly, we need to maintain a good relationship with Yucheng. Secondly, the opening of Guan City will also be of great benefit to us."

"Don't worry, I will take care of myself."

Su Lie nodded and turned his attention back to the braised beef.

After eating another large piece of beef, Su Lie raised his head and set his eyes on Hua Mulan.

"Mulan, the situation is special these days, so you should stay at the Great Wall and don't leave. Firstly, the Cloud Desert must be very dangerous these days, and I am a little worried about you. Secondly, if the demons really attack, the Great Wall will definitely need you very much."

Hua Mulan hesitated for a moment and said, "But as for General Zhao..."

"If that eunuch dares to stand up and make decisions, I will kill him."

"Uncle is so domineering. That eunuch should have died long ago."

Speaking of General Zhao, the mild-mannered Baili Shouyao couldn't help but clench his fists.

Baili Shouyao remembered very clearly that General Zhao not only made things difficult for Su Lie and targeted Hua Mulan, he also used his fingers to flick Baili Xuance's little dick.

Baili Shouyao had heard from others that General Zhao was very interested in young men, so Baili Shouyao had been worried about Baili Xuance's safety recently.

"This stove is quite something!"

Zhang Cheng's voice suddenly sounded at the side. Baili Shouyue came back to his senses and turned to Zhang Cheng and said, "Brother Zhang, I picked this stove out from a pile of stones. In addition to its height being suitable for me to cook, its only advantage is that it is relatively sturdy and durable."

Su Lie also smiled and said, "Brother Zhang Cheng, come and have dinner quickly. What's so good about studying that broken thing? Even if you study it for a year, it won't become a mechanical puppet."

Hearing Su Lie's words, Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "General Su, don't disbelieve it. It really is a mechanical device, and it is a very powerful mechanical puppet."

"This is impossible!"

Baili Shouyue waved his hand at Zhang Cheng, "Although I am not a mechanical engineer, I have seen many mechanical puppets. I can't possibly treat a mechanical puppet as a stove!"

Su Lie heard this and smiled, saying, "Brother Zhang Cheng, if it is really a mechanical puppet, I will make the decision on behalf of Shou Yue and give it to you."

"No!"

Zhang Cheng waved at Su Lie.

"This mechanical puppet is destined to be with Shouyue, and I cannot take away someone's love. General Su, if you trust me, come over and help me move this stove outside!"

Su Lie turned his head and glanced at Zhang Cheng. Seeing Zhang Cheng's serious expression, Su Lie could not help but stand up and whispered, "Are our visions not as good as those of the people at Jixia Academy? I want to see today if there is really a miracle happening."

Su Lie was very strong. He put his hands on the stove, roared, and picked up the huge stove.

Placing the stove in the middle of the room, Su Lie clapped his hands and said, "This broken stove, apart from being a little heavy, I really can't see any connection between it and the mechanical puppet from my perspective."

Hua Mulan and others also gathered around and surrounded Zhang Cheng and the stove.

"Could it be that I made a mistake? If I did, I would probably feel embarrassed, right?"

"If he is right, we will be the ones who are embarrassed."

"Don't worry, we won't be the ones embarrassed. I'm very familiar with my stove."

Zhang Cheng reached out and knocked on Shouyue's stove, and the stove was indeed very hard.

Combining the background story of the King, Zhang Cheng is very sure that this stove is Shield Mountain.

However, because Zhang Cheng knows nothing about mechanical engineering, he has not yet found a way to activate Shield Mountain.

But this is not important. As a highly intelligent robot, Tianmei can easily solve this problem.

After all, mechanical puppets are actually products of technology.

Zhang Cheng was not in a hurry to activate Shield Mountain. He wanted to talk to everyone first. After stirring up everyone's emotions, Zhang Cheng would be able to gain more favorability later.

"You are the Great Wall Guards. You should know something about the origin of the Great Wall."

Zhang Cheng glanced at Su Lie and the others, and without waiting for their response, he continued, "The gods built twelve wonders, and the Great Wall is one of them."

"In the beginning, the main laborers who built the Great Wall were demons. But in order to build the Great Wall faster and to facilitate its maintenance in the future, the gods created a powerful mechanical puppet called Shield Mountain."

"Of course, Shield Mountain can not only maintain the Great Wall, but it also has very strong defense and strength itself."

"If I'm not mistaken, this stove is a very well-preserved Shield Mountain."

"Shouyue, if you can activate Shield Mountain, you can stand behind Shield Mountain and shoot as you please."

Brothers, the stone man at the back is Shield Mountain, the white-haired man in front of him is Baili Shouyao, the red-haired one is Mulan, and the one in white clothes is Su Lie!
